In The Martyr and the Traitor, Virginia DeJohn Anderson offers an intertwined narrative
of men from very similar backgrounds and reveals how their relationships within their
families and communities became politicized as the imperial crisis with Britain erupted.
She explores how these men forged their loyalties in perilous times and believed the
causes for which they died to be honorable. Through their experiences, The Martyr
and the Traitor illuminates the impact of the Revolution on ordinary lives and how
the stories of patriots and loyalists were remembered and forgotten after independence
